ORIGIN

This 1979 Jeep CJ5 is a modified example featuring a fiberglass body finished in white over a black interior. Power comes from a 304ci V8 paired with a 3-speed manual transmission and 2-speed transfer case, while additional features include a roll bar, custom bumpers, auxiliary lighting, chrome grille cover, and 38.5″ Super Swampers on chrome rims. The truck was purchased two years ago by the seller, who has since driven it only 200 miles and added further modifications including black wheel flares and a custom audio system. This CJ5 is offered with a clean Illinois title in the seller’s name.

The fiberglass body is finished in white and comes with the black bikini top shown in the gallery below. This Jeep is equipped with dual chrome exhaust tips and front grille, black bumpers and roll bar, and two front utility lights.

The interior features black upholstery on the front seats and rear bench, black carpet, and floor mats with Jeep scripts. A fire extinguisher is mounted on the roll bar behind the driver’s seat. Approximately 60k miles are indicated on the 5-digit odometer, with the seller having added about 200. Total mileage is unknown.

Stereo equipment installed during current ownership included a marine-rated JL Audio receiver with Bluetooth, Focal speakers mounted in a custom box under the dash, and a JL Audio amplifier. Receipts detailing the installation by Soundz Plus of Naperville, Illinois are provided in the gallery.

The 304ci AMC V8 is paired with a 3-speed manual transmission and 2-speed transfer case sending power to all four wheels. The engine wears Edelbrock rocker covers and was reportedly rebuilt under previous ownership, though supporting records are unavailable. The seller states that an oil change was performed in June 2018.

Additional undercarriage photos show the lifted suspension in the gallery below, which also contains receipts for modifications performed during the seller’s ownership.
